Oh give it a rest.
- axod 18y agoYou don't think that's a possible outcome given the last couple of elections? :/
- trickjarrett 18y agoThere will be rioting in the streets if there is an upset.
- axod 18y agoSurely nothing as bad as the rioting of 2000 after that election was stolen? just sayin' ;)
- kaens 18y agoNo, much worse than the small disturbance of 2000. Compare the graphs here ( http://electoral-vote.com/evp2008/Pres/ec_graph-2008.html http://electoral-vote.com/evp2008/Pres/ec_graph-2008.html ), particularly the ones that leave out the "barely" states. People are much less politically apathetic in the US than they were in 2000, and I'd bet money on a serious people-dying riot in the case of another shady election deal. The 2000 elections were close enough to fudge, this was a landslide. I can't remember another time in my life where a lot of people were overcome with emotion to the point of tears at the result of an election in the US.
